Product Overview
Clone 18U92 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes ubiquitin-like modifier-activating enzyme 1 (gene UBA1) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 117.8 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 118 kDa.
UBA1 is the major ubiquitin-activating (E1) enzyme that starts the ubiquitination cascade. It uses ATP to activate ubiquitin and forms a thioester with it, then passes ubiquitin to E2 conjugating enzymes, so it is required for protein degradation by the proteasome and for many signaling and DNA repair processes.

Synthetic peptide based on the sequence of human E1 Ubiquitin Activating Enzyme.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places ubiquitin-like modifier-activating enzyme 1 in the cytoplasm, mitochondrion, nucleus and SUBCELLULAR LOCATION:. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Detected in erythrocytes (at protein level). The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
